A recent CounterTack survey of more than 100 information security executives at enterprises with revenues over $100 million has found that such companies aren't sufficiently prepared to detect and block advanced targeted attacks.

Almost half of survey respondents said their companies had been attacked within the past year, and on third of those that had been attacked said they lacked confidence in their organizations' ability to stop further attacks.

Fully 84 percent of respondents said their companies are vulnerable to advanced persistent threats targeting critical assets such as intellectual property.
